Light: Bright light from a north window is best. If growing under artificial light, the plant would do well with the 150-foot candles.
Water: Do not allow the root system to stay wet and soggy. However, keep the soil moist at all times, evenly moist but not consistently wet is the ideal way to water these plants, although it will survive forgotten waterings. Aspidistra does handle dry air and no humidity but does best with some air moisture.
Fertilizer: As a slow grower, do not over feed. At high light levels fertilizing once per month at 1/2 strength with a liquid food or apply a balance slow release fertilizer in the spring before growth begins. Under low light conditions, liquid feed every 3 to 4 months. Stop feeding during the cold winter months. s
